Spot the edit: Thanasi Kokkinakis shares a picture of the $6 Kmart t-shirt that sent the internet into a tailspin – but with one obvious photoshopped addition
An Australian tennis star who claimed an emotional first round win at the Australian Open wearing a $6 Kmart t-shirt has a new sponsor which he introduced to the world in a very unusual way.
Thanasi Kokkinakis took to Instagram to reveal Safety Culture Group had agreed to sign on as his sponsor.
He uploaded an image of the company’s logo on the t-shirt he wore during Tuesday evening’s win – but the logo has been revealed to have been photoshopped on.
‘Verified excited to announce that @safetyculturegroup has swung into action to support me all through my Aussie Open campaign,’ Kokkinakis posted.
‘To be backed by an Australian brand who’s helping events like the Open run smoothly is a perfect match.’
Kokkinakis is locked in a battle with Greek tennis ace Stefanos Tsitsipas in the second round of the Australian Open on Thursday afternoon.
